LIVESTOCK ORDINANCE
THE CIRCUIT COURT MAKES AN IMPORT
ANT RULING,
The Same Being Adverse to the CITY and
In Favor Of Mr.. Henry
Nsuhardt

In Part Two of the Circuit Court, Judge
Jacob, yesterday, in the case of the City of
Wheeling V. Henry Neuhardt, decision
was rendered which virtually annuls the
livestock ordinance and re-establishes the
reign of the stock yard in the Second ward.
A few legal formalities have yet to be
gone through with, however, and it will
take some little time before the Court is
finally done with the matter. The Ordin-
ance which gave rise to the litigation be-
tween the city and Mr.. Neuhardt was
passed by Council last fall after very
patient hearing OF both sides, the submis-
sion of petitions and counter petit
tons, and long arguments of cOun-
sci for and against the maintenance of
the yards. The ordinance went into effect
about the first of January, but out Of de-
sire to give the owners Of the yards every
opportunity to save themselves from loss,
it's enforcement was delayed by the police
for some weeks. Finally the Chiefinstructed
his men to notify the stOck-yards owners
to close up their business, and after this
warning one or two arrests were made.
In the case of Mr. Neuhardt nominal fine
was imposed, but this was increased to al
low of an appeal to the Circuit Court, IN
order that test Of the matter might be
made. In this last named Court, counsel
fo- Mr.. Neuhardt, Col. Robert White, filed
a plea to the effect that the City Council
had no right to enact and enforce an Ordi-
nance which interiered and destroyed an
established and lawful business, and
which at the same time greatly deprecated
the value of the real estate upon which
that business was carried on. The defend
ant had also filed four special pleas, to
which plaintiff objected, and the city also
moved to quash. Yesterday Judge Jacob
sustained the objection to special plea No.
|, but Overruled Nos. >, 3 and 4, and also
Overruled the motion to quash. The de
lendaut then pleaded not guilty to the
general issue, and there will now be II trial
to formally prove the subject-matter Of his
pea -ludI Tic was CohuuCtIhS ooVoIN anus
before and at the time the ordinance was
passed by the City Council. This done, the
ordinance will he imperative, as far as
Mr.. Neuhardt is concerned, Mt least.
The action of the Court is of good deal
of importance to the city authorities, rs
well as to many citizens, and the matter
was the subject ola good deal OF discussion
about the public buildings Yesterday after
noon and evening.

Yesterday morning at 80 o'clock Mr..
Samuel c. MellOr died at his residence on
Main street, in the forty-eiGhth year OF his

Yesterdays STORM.
The Winds Blow and the Rain POurs-NOt
Much Damage Done.

The HAnus BLOW anu tht nam EOuEs-Nob
Much Damage Done.
Yesterday afternoons storm was on the
terrific order that We often read about. and
it made things lively for short time.
These severe storms appear to he getting
quite disagreeably familiar abont these
parts lately and they make many people
uncomfortable, but the rain of yesterday
was picnic for vegetation, outside of
strawberries, which suffered somewhat.
All throughout Tuesday night and yester-
day morning showers came up at intervals,
as if old Lady Nature had her sprinkling
can out and was watering her gardens, and
il was evident that the nozzle came off
yesterday.
The storm came up the river and it soon
made itself known after its arrival. The
wind blew perfect gale, and when the
sheets of water descended it was whirlsd
this way and that and thrown against
doors and windows violently until they
ratified. There was some hail mixed up in
the rain, but it was too light to do any
damage.
Twelfth streets were raging rivers, while
other streets were full. The cellar under
Smyth's store, at the corner of Market and
Fourteenth streets, contained about six
inches of water in short time, which ran
in from Market street. The sewerage at
that corner is very inefficient and should
at once be remedied. Fortunately, no DAM
aye was done in the cellar.
The crematory building got about the
worst of the storm. The side facing the
city was blown in about three feet at the
bottom, several of the squares of cOrruga-
ted sheeting were broken loose and the
door and windows were displaced. There
were seventeen men from the workhOuse in
the building at the time and when the
wind commenced to shake II they made
tracks for the outsd where they remained
until the severest part Of the blast was
over, although they got soaked. The
damage to the building can easily be re-
paired, and it will be done at once.
In the upper part OF the city quite
number of windows were broken out, and
at Lash's jewelry store, corner OF Eleventh
and Main streets, three large window panes
were blown in and shattered to pieces.
The boats on the river were compelled to
make landings, and tie up. On the Island
several trees were blown down and the
shrubbery was damaged good deal How
ever no serious damage is reported and
people were not kept long in suspense Tor
the storm was of rather short duration.

Policy Shop Broke.

One of the half dozen policy shops which
have been running in the city for some
time past, collapsed Tuesday night. The
headquarters of all these establishments

Covington, Ky. Several sharps got onto
the fact that the difference in time
between CovingtOn and Wheeling gave
them some little time to work on after the
winning numbers were announced there,
and before the game closed here, and they
worked the telegraph 50 effectively that
this certain policy shop was bled with great
succe,s =. Tuesday night railroad con
ductor bought three tickets and scOoped in
nearly $500, so the story goes, and several
others caught the game so heavily that the
proprietors were compelled to shut mp
